ASTM International’s committee on sports equipment, playing surfaces, and facilities ( F08 ) is developing a standard for particle size of infill materials used in sports fields made from artificial turf. The proposed standard ( WK82607 ) includes all granular infill materials used in turf, providing a test method for particle size that uses sieve analysis. An appropriate particle size for turf…, Media Inquiries:, Dan Bergels, tel +1.610.832.9602; dbergels@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Joe Koury, tel +1.610.832.9804; jkoury@astm.org Release #11533 ###
